AKIN, Arthur M.---For the second time within the month Evanston has been called upon to part with one of its prominent business men. and the people of the city were very much shocked to learn that on Wednesday, September 28th, 1914. Arthur M Akin had departed this life. Mr. Akin had been ailing only a few days, and death was due to heart trouble. Funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 oclock, at the Presbyterian Church. The service was under the auspices of the Odd Fellows, assisted by Rev. D. M. Davies and Bishop James Brown. At the cemetery the ritual of the I. O. O. F.. was impressively carried out. and he was laid to rest surrounded at the graveside by his sorrowing relatives and friends. Arthur M. Akin was born at Leavenworth, Kansas. December 17, 1867, and at the time of his death was in his 46th year. He attended school at Sioux City, Iowa, and Omaha, Neb. and later was employed in a bank at the latter place, He then went into the employ of N. J. Edholm, who was conducting a jewelry store at Omaha, and they have been associated in business ever since, for a period of thirty years. He has owned stores in the Black Hills, at Omaha, and at Evanston. For a number of years he was also engaged in ranching on the Laramie plains opening a store in Evanston about ten years ago. He is survived by his father. Colonel Akin, cashier of the post office at Omaha: his mother; and by one brother. Dr. H. L. Akin. Some years ago the Edholm & Akin Company bought a large ranch up Bear River, and it was in this that the deceased seemed to take the greatest pride and pleasure. At the funeral, the flowers were profuse and beautiful, and Mr. Edholm and Dr. Akin have expressed themselves as deeply touched by the many expressions of sympathy extended to them, as also by the apparent esteem in which the deceased was held in this community. Among those from out of town to attend the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Farnsworth of Ogden; Mrs Pierce of Ogden, Dr. Akin of Omaha; Mr. Ottoman of Cheyenne; Mr. Brophy of Ogden; Mr. and Mrs. Darrow of Green River; Mr. Hurd of Green River; Paul Spence of Cheyenne, and many others.
